1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:09,000
Generalized anxiety disorder, while panic disorder represents the sense of immediate danger, generalized

2
00:00:09,030 --> 00:00:14,040
anxiety disorder involves a more diffuse and anxiety about future events.

3
00:00:14,490 --> 00:00:20,340
The core of generalized anxiety disorder is continual worry about a wide range of things.

4
00:00:20,730 --> 00:00:29,010
As generalized suggests, the excessive and uncontrollable worry in generalized anxiety disorder leads

5
00:00:29,010 --> 00:00:35,760
to symptoms like difficulty concentrating, trouble sleeping, muscle tension and restlessness.

6
00:00:37,830 --> 00:00:43,680
Both the traumatic stress disorder and anxiety is an understandable response.

7
00:00:43,680 --> 00:00:50,760
When we've been through a terrible traumatic event, anything that poses a threat to our physical well-being

8
00:00:50,760 --> 00:01:00,810
can lead to post-traumatic stress disorder, including natural disasters, car accidents and combat,

9
00:01:00,810 --> 00:01:01,830
among others.

10
00:01:02,940 --> 00:01:09,690
Witnessing something awful happen to someone else, or learning about a trauma that someone close to

11
00:01:09,690 --> 00:01:15,050
us experienced can also set us up for post-traumatic stress disorder.

12
00:01:18,020 --> 00:01:27,220
After experiencing a terrible trauma, most people will have symptoms like reimagining and reexperiencing,

13
00:01:27,740 --> 00:01:36,590
this includes intrusive memories, nightmares and strong emotional reactions when reminded that event

14
00:01:37,190 --> 00:01:38,060
avoidance.

15
00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:45,590
This includes trying not to think about the trauma as well as avoiding people, places and things that

16
00:01:45,590 --> 00:01:50,610
remind the person of what happened, changes and thinking and mood.

17
00:01:50,810 --> 00:01:58,040
For example, we may start to see the world as a very dangerous place and ourselves as a bonus.

18
00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:07,400
To cope with that, we might also struggle to trust others and paradoxically begin to engage in risky

19
00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:08,140
behaviors.

20
00:02:08,390 --> 00:02:15,200
We're also less likely to experience positive emotions and more likely to experience negative ones

21
00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:19,250
hyper arousal.

22
00:02:19,640 --> 00:02:23,920
This means our nervous systems are on high alert.

23
00:02:24,260 --> 00:02:32,170
We may have trouble sleeping and concentrating and may constantly be shaking our surroundings for danger.

24
00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:41,180
These reactions are very typical for nearly everyone after trauma to me post post-traumatic stress disorder

25
00:02:41,180 --> 00:02:48,520
criteria, they have to meet their somewhat criteria of lasting more than one month.
